This document studies the effect of adding silica aerogel and aluminium hydroxide on the flame retardancy, mechanical, and thermal properties of epoxy resin composites. Different composite mixtures were prepared with varying percentages of epoxy resin, aluminium hydroxide, and silica aerogel. Limiting oxygen index, horizontal burning, and vertical burning tests were conducted to evaluate the flame retardancy. Tensile, compression, and thermal conductivity tests were performed to analyze the mechanical and thermal properties. The results showed that adding silica aerogel improved the flame retardancy and reduced the thermal conductivity compared to composites without aerogel. Composites with aerogel also demonstrated better mechanical properties than those with aluminium
Effect of Heat Treatment on Corrosion Behavior of Spring SteelsEditor IJCATR
The experimental work deals with the effect of heat treatment on the corrosion behaviour of spring steels. In this study the
heat treatments like hardening, normalizing and tempering were done for spring steels to obtain martensitic matrix, pearlitic structure
and tempered martensitic matrix respectively. After heat treatment the microstructural studies were carried out for the samples using
SEM. Hardness measurements were done. The corrosion behaviour of all heat treated samples in HCl at different concentration (1.5N,
2N and 2.5N) was determined using Tafel extrapolation technique. The variation in the corrosion rates due to the effect of heat
treatment was noted. The results indicate that for fully martensitic matrix the corrosion rate is minimum and for pearlitic structure its
maximum. As tempering time is increased the corrosion rate increases correspondingly. The corroded microstructural images were
also taken using SEM and analysed.
Effect of LVOF Sprayed Coating in Oxidation & Hot Corrosion Performance of Bo...IJRES Journal
Oxidation and hot corrosion is the major degradation mechanism of failure of boiler and gas turbine components. These failures occur because of the usage of wide range of fuels such as coal, oil at increased temperatures. To obviate these problems, in current investigation Al2O3+40%TiO2 powder has been deposited on Boiler Steel SA-192by LVOF (Low velocity oxy fuel process). The oxidation and hot corrosion performances of Al2O3+40%TiO2 coated as well as bare Boiler Steel SA-192 has been evaluated in air and with aggressive environment Na2SO4+60%V2O5 under cyclic conditions at an elevated temperatures of 8500C & 9500C. The kinetics of the corrosion is approximated by weight change measurements made after each cycle for total duration of 50 cycles. Each cycle consists of keeping the samples for 1 hour duration in Kanthol wire tube furnace at 8500C and 9500C followed by 20 minute cooling in ambient air. Weight change data has been taken after each cycle by digital electronic balance machine with an accuracy of 1 milligram. Graphs have been plotted between weight gains per surface area to number of cycles. Boiler Steel SA-192 has shown poor performance in oxidising and in hot corrosion environment it suffered intensive spallation in the form of removal of scales. To improve oxidation and hot corrosion resistance Al2O3+40%TiO2 coating has been successfully deposited on Boiler Steel SA-192 by Low velocity oxy fuel process using CERAJET spray nozzle (A proprietary item of MECPL, Jodhpur). Coating has shown approximately 90% & 92% improvement respectively in the oxidation and hot corrosion resistance of Boiler Steel SA-192have been observed .
Role of Coating in Improving High Temperature Oxidation of SteelIJERD Editor
Oxidation is the major degradation mechanism of failure for various components operating at high
temperature. Protective coatings are used to improve the oxidation resistance of such component. In the present
investigation, Al2O3 and Ni-20Cr coatings have been deposited on SAE431 boiler steel by Detonation Gun
Spraying Method. The oxidation performance of Al2O3 and Ni-20Cr coated as well as uncoated SAE-431 steel
has been evaluated in air under cyclic conditions at an elevated temperatures of 8000C. Al2O3 coating on
SAE431 boiler steel has shown approximately 26% improvement in the oxidation resistance of SAE431 steel
whereas Ni-20Cr coating on SAE431 boiler steel has indicated about 21% improvement in the oxidation
resistance as compared to the uncoated SAE431 boiler steel.
EFFECT OF THE ROUGHNESS AND TEMPERATURE OF THE SURFACE OF THE BASE MATERIAL O...IAEME Publication
In this research, the thermal coating process was carried out using flame spraying
technique using a gas mixture of oxygen and acetylene for the purpose of obtaining a
surface layer of nickel-aluminum (metco450) coating on the surface of medium carbon
steel type (AISI 1050) which provide an increase in surface properties and compensation
of the base material when lost due to friction or wear.
The research was carried out in three successive stages. The first stage included the
preparation of the specimens and the design of the base surface of these specimens and
Preparation of powder coating and analysis of chemical components for base material
and powder coating. The second stage included the implementation of the coating process
of (nickel-aluminum) powder by using the flame spray. The coating process was carried
out in different ways for each model by changing the different spraying factors, which
included the surface roughness of the specimens and the surface temperature of the
specimens before the coating process. The third stage of the research included
mechanical testing procedures of the coating layer.
The tests showed that adhesion increases with increasing surface roughness of the
sample prior to coating and the best adhesion is obtained when the base surface of the
sample is heated to a temperature of (350 ºC) before the coating process. The resistance
of the coating layer to wear is increased with the roughness of the base material surface
of the sample due to the increased adhesion of the coating layer and the best resistance
to wear when heating the surface of the base material of the sample before coating to
temperature (350 ºC). The hardness of the coating layer is increased by increasing the
roughness of the surface of the base material of the sample before the coating process
and the best surface hardness of the coating layer when heating the surface of the base
material of the sample before the coating process to (350 ºC

Particulate Sintering of Iron Ore and Empirical Analysis of Sintering Time Ba...IOSR Journals
Particulate sintering of iron ore has been carried out using the necessary ingredients. Empirical
analysis of the sintering time based on the coke breeze input concentration and ignition temperature were also
successfully obtained through first principle application of a derived model which functioned as a evaluative
tool. The derived model;
S = (√T)0.95 + 0.0012α
indicates that amongst ignition temperature and coke breeze input, sintering time is more significantly affected
by the coke breeze input concentration. This is based on the higher correlation it makes with sintering time
compared to applied ignition temperature, all other process parameters being constant. The validity of the
model was rooted in the core expression S – Kα ≈ (√T )N where both sides of the expression are correspondingly
approximately almost equal. Sintering time per unit rise in the operated ignition temperature as obtained from
experiment, derived model and regression model were evaluated as 0.0169, 0.0128 and 0.0159 mins. / 0C
respectively. Similarly, sintering time per unit coke breeze input concentration as obtained from experiment,
derived model and regression model were evaluated as 4.0, 3.0183 and 3.7537 mins./ % respectively indicating a
significant proximate agreement and validity of the model. The standard error (STEYX) incurred in predicting
sintering time for each value of the ignition temperature and coke breeze input concentration considered, as
obtained from the experiment, derived model and regression model are 1.6646, 0.7678 and 2.98 x10-5 % as well
as 2.2128, 1.0264 and 1.2379% respectively. The maximum deviation of mode-predicted results from the

Thermal Barrier Coating For Gas Turbine EnginesNelsonkandulna
This presentation describes the thermal barrier coating process, its anatomy, types, material selection, failure, and characterization. Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were introduced to protect the external surface of gas turbine engine components from thermal resistance and thereby decrease the temperature of the metal surfaces. Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is one of the most popular and widely used TBC materials as it provides the best performance in high-temperature zones such as diesel engines and gas turbines. The columnar microstructure of YSZ coating provides excellent strain tolerance and adhesion to the coating. Gas turbines are used to power aircraft, trains, ships, electrical generators, pumps, gas compressors, and tanks.
Abstract: The Hot corrosion is the main and severe problem which can be controlled by thermal spray coatings. The various Corrosion control measures include Surface Heat Treatment, Engineering Paints, Vitreous Enamelling, Cladding, Powder coatings, Zinc coatings, Tin Plate, Electroplating, Cadmium Plating, Anodising (Anodizing), Thermal Spray Coatings., Plasma Nitriding/Carburising/Boronising., Pack Cementation, Ion Implantation, Ceramic and Cermet materials., Chemical Vapour Deposition, Physical Vapour Deposition. The demand for protective coatings has increased recently for almost all types of super alloys with improved strength, since high-temperature corrosion problems become much more significant for these alloys with increasing operating temperatures of modern heat engines. The Major areas where coatings have the application are Power generation Industries, Ceramics Industries, Chemical Industries, Iron & steel Industries and Mining Industries etc. Open or closed porosity in thermal spray coatings can originate from several different factors: partially or totally unmolten
particles, inadequate flow or fragmentation of the molten particle at impact, shadowing effects due to lower than the optimal spray angle, and entrapped gas. The interconnected (open) porosity allows the corrosive media to reach the coating-substrate interface, which eventually leads to delamination of the coatings. Although the development of the modern thermal spray
processes has decreased coating porosities, the transport of corrosive species to the substrate can still only be prevented by coating post treatment. Therefore it’s of actual significance to develop an effective method to post treat the thermal spray coatings to enhance their life in corrosive environment. In this paper author has reviewed the significance of heat treatment in thermal spray coatings for improving their properties and has made an attempt to explore the potential of heat treatment
process in thermal spray coatings.

Experimental Characterization of Carbon Fibre T700 / Epoxy towpreg for Space ...IJERA Editor
This document covers detailed experimental characterization of Carbon Fibre T 700/Epoxy towpreg.The
experimental characterization of carbon fibre T 700/Epoxy towpreg composite material is necessary required for
generation of mechanical properties data for analysis, design, and fabrication of structural components using
that material and for quality control of the material. The testing of composite materials offers unique surprises
because of the special characteristics of composites. Factors not considered important in metals testing are very
important in testing composites. For example, composites are anisotropic, with properties that depend on the
direction in which they are tested. Speed must be carefully monitored at the time of testing of specimens and
also fiber content, void content, specimen conditioning (drying, storage, etc) have important effects on material
properties.
In order to design composite products, a thorough experimental characterization of carbon fibre T 700 / Epoxy
towpreg composite material and its behaviour is necessary.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
